Paroles de Let it happen

Such a sad procession, winding down the laneAnd what a strange impression is branded on my brainA band was playing -- endless, mindlessIt was like a hooligan's lamentIt was dumb, but it was timelessI still don't know what it meantAnd whatever needs to happenLet it happen, let it beThrough all i am protectedGrace is effectedOver meBehold the lights of londonThe skipper said that his hands shookHis aura eaten by his jealously and all the drugs he tookHe said "this is the real world buddyToughen up your ass, or it'll break."I said "i'm not your buddy, buddyAnd your real world is a fake."Here comes the peace campaignerShe says the end justifies her meansHer words so full of reason fell like napalm on my dreamsI said "peace is not a word, never!"She calls me traitor, i just grinI said "you've gotta live it every momentOr else you're just sucking wind"And whatever needs to happenLet it happen, let it beThrough all i am protectedGrace is effectedOver meThe dj casts his maledictionAs the wedding guests appearIt was as cruel as any fictionI still carry the souvenirThe dj took his vengeanceAs the wedding guests arrivedThere was malice in his handshakeQuicksand in his eyesAs he slunk across the courtyardFrom far off i heard a horn

Somewhere in the bleak mid-distanceSomething beautiful is bornAnd whatever needs to happenLet it happen, let it beThrough all i am protectedGrace is effectedOver meI stumbled down a street of shadowsA black alleluia split the nightProstitutes anarchists and priests were playing stripjackUnderneath the cruel lamplightI came upon a weeping soldierHe said "i'm all washed up now, huh"But when i glanced across his shoulderHe held a royal flushAnd whatever needs to happenLet it happen, let it beThrough all i am protectedGrace is effectedOver meI'm still here, i'm still wheelingI'm who i thought i was, or just aboutI'll be walking down this boulevardUntil my legs give outThoughts like storms and seas are ragingI know it is a matter of degreeBut it's not the world outside that's changingIt's meAnd whatever needs to happenLet it happen, let it beThrough all i am protectedGrace is effectedOver meOver meOver meOver meOver meOver meOver meGrace is effectedOver me
